I've seen all kinds of murdered vehicles that look good, and I didn't mean they all have to be fast and definitely not expensive. The big sedans have the intimidation factor on looks alone, When I was introduced to murdered out they were cars that could fit a minimum of three "throw rugs" in the trunk.

I was already aware of what a matte hood is for, not too many (modern) chrome trimmed track cars out there. Unless you're Dick Dastardly and chrome wrap the rear of the car to blind your opponents behind you then chrome in the drivers sight is going to be detrimental.

Take this for a lap, if you can get there before the $1.5m worth of diamonds get picked off. Nothing says luxury like a diamond encrusted Kuga.

Funny you mention autox

obviously no one here does any autox or other racing or you would have a clue why chrome is and has been out. ever wonder what the purpose of matte hood or stripes on the hood are actually for?
its really so much fun in the middle of a turn to have chrome or that shiny hood glint you and temporarily take your vision away. even driving down the road this sucks bad.

Murdered out only works for me if it's bad arse... either a land yacht like a 300C, or a '64 Continental. A murdered out Tahoe or Avalanche and I'd wear a black suit for no reason, or a nasty 700hp RWD canyon carver and you want to stay under the radar. Murdered out Sentra, not so much.

there ya go, does that work?
